DearComrades:

Iam following your case with all my heart. I am
indignant over Orjonikidze’s rudeness and the connivance of
Stalin and Dzerzhinsky. I am preparing for you notes and
a
speech.[1]

Respectfullyyours,Lenin

March 6, 1923

[1]SeeNote 765.

Lenin was unable to prepare the letter and the speech on the    
“Georgian question”. On March 10, 1923, there was an acute    
deterioration in his condition.

This letter is the last document dictated by Lenin.
